Drinks and a movie?
Bills OK serving beer and wine in cinemas
BY MELISSA SANTOS
MCCLATCHY NEWS SERVICE

OLYMPIA — Lawmakers are debating tougher drunken-driving penalties
following two high-profile fatal crashes
in Seattle.
At the same time, some legislators
are questioning whether the state should
be expanding alcohol service in places
such as day spas and movie theaters.
Several bills have passed or are close
to passing in the Legislature to allow
alcohol to be served in settings other
than restaurants and bars, including
farmers markets, theaters, day spas and
liquor stores.
Debate about the consequences of
alcohol proliferation came to a head in

LIFE

the state Senate just
last Friday, when
several
senators
from both parties
spoke out against a
bill that would allow
small movie theaters
to apply for a license
to serve beer and
wine.
Hargrove

Hargrove opposes
Sen. Jim Hargrove, D-Hoquiam
whose 24th District includes the North
Olympic Peninsula, opposed the bill on
the grounds that it would give children
more opportunities to sneak sips of alcohol in darkened movie theaters.

That, Hargrove said, could lead to
terrible results.
“I think we’re going to end up with
some real tragedies here, where kids are
going to get some alcohol and they’re
going to end up hurt or killed,” he said.
Added Sen. Jeannie Darneille,
D-Tacoma: “I’m afraid [with] our whole
system of desensitization to the impacts
of alcohol in our state, it almost looks
like we’re in a race.
“How much more can we do this [legislative] session to expand access to
alcohol in our community?
“We’re just on a race to decide that
this is not a public health issue anymore,” said Darneille.

PORT ANGELES — After a tour of downtown Port Angeles that started last month, a
stainless-steel eagle has found a new home.
At least for a day.
“AR Tee” the Eagle, one of a trio of metal
bird sculptures that once stood vigil over the
downtown waterfront, will spend Wednesday
at Northwest Fudge and Confections at 108
W. First St., said Barb Frederick, the executive director of the Port Angeles Downtown
Association.

‘Fitted for shoes’

ARWYN RICE/PENINSULA DAILY NEWS

A young deer trots down West First Street in downtown Port Angeles on Sunday morning, before
finding an opening between buildings to escape traffic that was approaching from behind.

Between now and then, it “will be fitted
for shoes,” said Frederick, and will not be on
display.
The traveling sculpture has been featured
in a PADA promotion in which business owners donate $10 in exchange for having it in
their shops for a day, said Charles Smith,
chairman of the Art on the Town Committee.
“People can come in [to the business] and
get their pictures taken with AR Tee,” said
Smith.

SEQUIM –– A 5-year-old project to install a garden to demonstrate low-impact landscaping at
Sequim’s Water Reuse Demonstration Park has been moved
closer to completion.
Members of the Sequim Association of Realtors on Friday
planted hundreds of droughtresistant plants — such as trailing raspberries, lilacs, heliantheum and kinnikinnick — on the
south edge of the parking lot for
the Albert Haller Playfields in
Carrie Blake Park.
“The idea is to demonstrate to
people what they can grow without having to water it,” said Joe
Holtrop, manager of the Clallam

Conservation District.
Over the past couple of weeks,
such volunteers as the Realtors
and the Sequim High School FFA
— along with special help from
the Washington Conservation
Corps — have planted more than
2,000 plants in a half-acre plot to
be used as a template for those
looking to minimize water for
their homes’ landscaping.

‘A big concern’
“It’s a big concern for all of us,
conserving water,” Realtor Marguerite Glover said Friday while
digging holes for coastal strawberry plants in a demonstration
rain garden at the site.
The project has been a long
time in the works, begun in 2008

by the Master Gardener Foundation of Clallam County and Washington State University Clallam
County Extension Office.
The two groups acquired
grants to begin low-impact landscaping at the park, but financial
and time constraints forced them
to back out.
The conservation district has
since taken over the lead, and
Holtrop said the goal is to have it
all done this summer.
With a grant from the federal
Environmental Protection Agency,
Holtrop said, a portion of the
playfields’ parking lot will be
paved with a porous concrete that
will allow runoff to filter through
it to the soil.

Looking Back
From the files of The Associated Press

TODAY IS MONDAY,
April 15, the 105th day of 2013.
There are 260 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History:
■ On April 15, 1912, the British luxury liner RMS Titanic sank
in the North Atlantic off Newfoundland at 2:20 a.m. ship’s time,
more than 2½ hours after striking
an iceberg; 1,514 people died, while
fewer than half as many survived.
On this date:
■ In 1850, the city of San
Francisco was incorporated.
■ In 1865, President Abraham
Lincoln died, nine hours after
being shot the night before by John
Wilkes Booth at Ford’s Theater in

Washington. Andrew Johnson
became the nation’s 17th president.
■ In 1874, an exhibition of
paintings by 30 artists, including
Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, PierreAuguste Renoir and Paul Cezanne,
opened in Paris. A critic derisively
referred to the painters as “Impressionists,” a name which stuck.
■ In 1943, the Ayn Rand novel
The Fountainhead was first published by Bobbs-Merrill Co.
■ In 1947, Jackie Robinson,
baseball’s first black major league
player, made his official debut with
the Brooklyn Dodgers. The Dodgers
defeated the Boston Braves, 5-3.
■ In 1959, Cuban leader Fidel

Castro arrived in Washington,
D.C., to begin a goodwill tour of
the United States.
■ In 1986, the United States
launched an air raid against Libya
in response to the bombing of a
discotheque in Berlin on April 5.
Libya said 37 people, mostly civilians, were killed.
■ In 1989, 96 people died in a
crush of soccer fans at Hillsborough
Stadium in Sheffield, England.
Students in Beijing launched a
series of pro-democracy protests.
The demonstrations culminated in
a government crackdown at
Tiananmen Square.
■ In 1998, Pol Pot, the notori-

ous leader of the Khmer Rouge,
died at age 73, evading prosecution for the deaths of 2 million
Cambodians.
■ Ten years ago: Looters and

WASHINGTON — With midnight tonight being the filing deadline for federal tax returns, it
might be too late to start worrying
that the Internal Revenue Service
may be targeting you for an audit.
But you probably should be
aware that if you own a small
business in one of the wealthy
suburbs of Los Angeles, it very
well could be.
You might also be wary if
you’re a small-business owner in
one of dozens of communities near
San Francisco, Houston, Atlanta
or the District of Columbia.
A new study by the National
Taxpayer Advocate used confidential IRS data to show large clusters of potential tax cheats in
these five metropolitan areas.

The study also found that people who own construction companies or real estate rental firms
may be more likely to fudge their
taxes than those in other fields.
Many of the communities identified by the study are very
wealthy, including Beverly Hills
and Newport Beach in California.
Others are more middle class,
such as New Carrollton, Md., and
College Park, Ga., home to a section of Atlanta’s massive airport.

Wealthier also are targeted
Steve Rosansky, president and
CEO of the Newport Beach Chamber of Commerce, said business
owners in his city are probably
targeted because many have high
incomes. The likelihood of an
audit does increase with income,
according to IRS data.
The study focused on smallbusiness owners because they
handle cash and have more opportunity than the typical individual
to cheat on their taxes.

The IRS audits only about
1 percent of returns, so the agency
tries to pick ones that are likely to
yield additional tax money.
The IRS runs every return
through a computer program to
determine the chances of collecting more money from an audit.
Each tax return is assigned a
score. The higher your score, the
more likely you are to get audited.
The score is called the Discriminant Inventory Function, or
DIF. How do you get a high score?
Former IRS workers believe they
have a pretty good idea.
“If you’re reporting $8,000 of
charitable contributions when
you’re only making $50,000, that’s
a red flag,” said Bob Meighan, vice
president of TurboTax, an online
tax preparation service.
“Likewise if you’re reporting
business or employee expenses
that are out of the ordinary for
your income range, that would
attract the interest of the IRS as
well.”

TOKYO — The United States
and Japan opened the door Sunday to new nuclear talks with
North Korea if the saber-rattling
country lowers tensions and honors past agreements, even as it
rejected South Korea’s latest offer
of dialogue as a “crafty trick.”

The diplomats seemed to point
the way for a possible revival of
the six-nation talks that have

China has pushed for the process to resume without conditions.
But the U.S. and allies South
Korea and Japan fear rewarding
North Korea for its belligerence.
Kerry’s message of openness to
diplomacy was clear, however
unlikely the chances appeared

Jong Un’s government would

“I’m not going to be so stuck in

flagrantly wasted because of a
kind of predetermined stubbornness,” Kerry said.

“You have to keep your mind

show some kind of good faith here

A man with King County Search and Rescue runs toward the scene of an
avalanche at Exit 47 along Interstate 90 near Snoqualmie Pass on
Saturday.

SNOQUALMIE PASS —
A female snowshoer has
died hours after she was
dug out of an avalanche by
fellow hikers, and a man
remained missing Sunday,
one day after a pair of
spring avalanches struck
separate groups hiking in
the Cascade Mountains
east of Seattle, authorities
in Washington state said.
Sgt. Katie Larson with
the King County Sheriff’s
Office said a team of rescuers worked through the
night in blizzard-like conditions to carry the female
snowshoer off the mountain
just after midnight.

‘Horrific’ conditions
Medics confirmed that
she had died when they
reached the base of the
mountain, Larson said.
“The conditions yesterday were horrific,” Larson

said Sunday. “It took 25 rescuers about five to six
hours” to bring her off the
mountain in a sled.
The woman, whose identity was not known, had
been hiking with her dog
near a group of a dozen
other people Saturday
afternoon when an avalanche hit Red Mountain
near Snoqualmie Pass.

Buried in 5 feet of snow
She was buried in 5 feet
of snow but was dug out
with the help of the group of
snowshoers, who also had
been caught in the avalanche.
Members of that group
told authorities that it took
them 45 minutes to find the
woman.
This is the first avalanche fatality reported in
Washington state for the
2012-2013 season, according to the Northwest
Weather and Avalanche

Center in Seattle.
Meanwhile, the search
for a 60-year-old hiker who
was swept down the mountain in a separate avalanche
at Granite Mountain on
Saturday was suspended
indefinitely due to the poor
weather conditions.
“There was a heavy snow
dump last night, and conditions are still very hazardous,” Larson said.
The man, from Kent,
was with two other friends
when the avalanche carried
them more than 1,200 feet
down the mountain. The
two friends emerged from
the snow, but their friend
did not. The two men suffered injuries that were
described as non-lifethreatening. One of them
was taken to a hospital for
treatment, but Larson did
not know his condition.
The avalanches occurred
as heavy snow fell near
Snoqualmie Pass.

PORT ANGELES — A
status hearing for Bobby J.
Smith, a Port Angeles man
charged with first-degree
murder for the shooting
death of his next door
neighbor in June 2011, has
been postponed by two
weeks to give lawyers
more time to interview
witnesses.
Smith, 60, is scheduled
to go to trial June 10,
nearly two years after he
allegedly shot and killed
63-year-old Robert Fowler
with a 45.-caliber pistol at
Smith’s home on Vashon
Avenue.
Defense attorney Harry
Gasnick of Clallam Public
Defender and Clallam

County Deputy Prosecuting
Attorney John Troberg told
Superior Court Judge
George L. Wood on Friday
that they needed “additional
time to conduct interviews
with expert witnesses,” Troberg said Friday.
Wood reset the status
conference for April 26.

$1 million bond
Smith is being held in
the Clallam County jail on
$1 million bond. His trial
has been postponed several times because of
delays in the forensic
investigation and psychological evaluations.
Smith, who suffers from
post-traumatic stress disorder, has been found com-

petent to stand trial.
When the trial was
moved from February to
its current date, Gasnick
assured Judge S. Brooke
Taylor that the latest delay
would be the last.
Port Angeles police said
Smith shot Fowler several
times until Fowler stopped
moving on his living room
floor.
Smith told investigators that he shot Fowler in
self-defense.
Smith was not charged
until a three-month crime
lab investigation had been
completed.
By that time, Smith
had moved to Amarillo,
Texas, where Port Angeles
police served an arrest
warrant in October 2011.

Solar energy on local farmland is
topic of Tuesday talk in Jefferson
PENINSULA DAILY NEWS

PORT TOWNSEND —
Profitably developing the
solar energy on local farmland is the topic of this
month’s Jefferson County
Energy Lunch Program.
The event will be held at
the Port Townsend Community Center, 620 Tyler St.,
from 12:30 p.m. to 1:30 p.m.
Tuesday.
The brown-bag lunch
talk is free and open to the
public.
This month’s key speakers are Jim Patton, executive director of the Port of
Coupeville, and John Hastings, president and founding member of Island Community Solar on Whidbey
Island.
In 2010, Hastings,
together with five other

Island County residents,
created the Island Community Solar project with 36
local investors.
Patton arranged for the
long-term development of
solar energy collection on
an acre of Whidbey Island
farmland at Greenbank
Farm, which is owned by
the Port of Coupeville.
The solar arrays are
located on land leased from
the port.

Project’s beginnings
Hastings will describe
the genesis of this community solar project, explain
how six founders reached
agreement on launching
the project and summarize
the current business operations.
Patton will describe the

public benefits obtained by
the Port of Coupeville from
its farmland.
The monthly Energy
Lunch programs, held every
third Tuesday, are aimed at
increasing awareness of
how energy, energy technology and energy policy affect
life and business in Jefferson County.
Participants are welcome to bring their lunch
and arrive at noon to join
an informal conversation
with local energy professionals.
The programs are sponsored by Power Trip Energy
Corp., Sunshine Propane,
Alaska Power & Telephone
Co., the Port of Port
Townsend and Huber’s Inn.

Alcohol: Measure needs only Insleeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s signature
CONTINUED FROM A1
Darneille said that increased
alcoholism burdens the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s
social service programs.
House Bill 1001, which would
allow theaters with four or fewer
screens to apply for a license to
serve beer and wine, passed the
Senate 27-21 on Friday. The bill
would not require theaters to
serve food.
Having already passed the
House, the legislation requires
only a signature by Gov. Jay
Inslee to become law.
Proponents of creating an alcohol license for small movie theaters said it would help historic
cinemas compete with multiplexes by allowing them to offer a
different service.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I do believe we should do all
we reasonably can to help our
small businesses be more competitive,â&#x20AC;? said Sen. Annette Cleveland, D-Vancouver.
Operators of the Grand Cinema in Tacoma and the Kiggins
Theatre in downtown Vancouver,
Wash., testified in support of the
legislation, saying it would help
them serve their customers better.

Farmers markets
Also last week, the Legislature
approved allowing beer and wine
samples to be served at farmers
markets and grocery stores, as
well as allowing students younger
than 21 to taste wine if they are
enrolled in a college culinary
school program.
Other bills awaiting floor votes

in the Capitol would allow day
spas to serve a complimentary
glass of beer or wine, and allow
alcohol sampling at liquor stores.
The Washington Association
for Substance Abuse and Violence
Prevention has opposed all of the
measures.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;We think this sends the wrong
message to our youth in that it
normalizes the use of alcohol,â&#x20AC;?
said Seth Dawson, the organizationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lobbyist.
But the chair of the House
committee that heard all of the
alcohol-related bills disagrees
that there is a moral issue
involved with allowing alcohol to
be served in new places.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;If there was a moral question,
it has already been decided by the
voters,â&#x20AC;? said Rep. Chris Hurst,

D-Enumclaw, who chairs the
House Government Accountability and Oversight Committee.
By approving Initiative 1183
in 2011, â&#x20AC;&#x153;the citizens put alcohol
in more places than we ever
dreamed of,â&#x20AC;? Hurst said.
I-1183 privatized liquor sales
in Washington, taking the state
out of the liquor business and
allowing liquor to be sold by businesses such as grocery stores and
convenience shops.
Hurst said the bills that passed
through his committee have control measures in place to ensure
that minorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; access to alcohol is
restricted.
In the case of the bill to allow
alcohol service at movie theaters,
any cinema that allows minors
would have to file an alcohol con-

trol plan with the state Liquor
Control Board.

Double penalties
Additionally, theaters would
face double the normal penalties
for alcohol violations involving
minors.
Rick Garza, the Liquor Control
Boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deputy director, said his
organization isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t particularly
worried about this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s slate of
alcohol bills increasing underage
drinking in Washington.
Movie theaters, day spas and
grocery stores arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the kind of
places where the Liquor Control
Board expects rampant violations
to occur, he said.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;Where we have issues are
nightclubs, lounges â&#x20AC;&#x201D; not these
types of places,â&#x20AC;? Garza said.

Health Notes
COMPOUNDING FOR
FERRETS WITH INSULINOMA

by Joe Cammack, R.Ph.
Beta cell tumors, also known as insulinomas,
are the most common form of cancer in
ferrets. These tumors produce excessive
amounts of insulin, causing dangerously low
blood glucose levels. Surgery to remove
visible tumors or a large portion of pancreas frequently does not
result in a cure. The incidence of recurrence is high. But, in
some cases, with good care and a combination of medical and
surgical treatment, or medical treatment alone, a ferret may be
able to live with this condition for a number of years.
Prednisolone is a medication that is commonly administered
orally to ferrets with insulinoma to improve glucose
metabolism. Prednisolone is currently not commercially
available and must be compounded by pharmacists for use in
ferrets. Diazoxide is used to treat ferrets with insulinoma once
they become refractory to prednisolone therapy, and most
veterinarians prefer to use a sugarless flavored compounded
suspension provided by compounding pharmacists. Ask our
compounding pharmacist for more information about
customized medications for animals.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pretty understandable at this stage of

The proposed $34.5 billion biennium budget

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re just closing some

In a Saturday interview,
Tharinger said the exemptions the House proposal
repeals include preferential
business and operation tax
rates for tour guides and
insurance agents, the latter
of which the House proposal estimates will generate $46.1 million over the
2013-2015 biennium.

Estate tax reinstated
The proposed budget
also reinstates an estate tax
for married couples whose
homes are worth more than
$4 million, Tharinger said,
when currently only single
people with homes worth

The bill will be subjected

Grading schools on global criteria
T

HERE WAS A TIME
when middle-class parents
in America could be — and
were — content to know that
their kids’ public schools were
better than those in the next
neighborhood over.
As the world
has shrunk,
Thomas L.
though, the
Friedman
next neighborhood over is
now Shanghai
or Helsinki.
So, last
August, I wrote
a column quoting Andreas
Schleicher —
who runs the
global exam
that compares
how 15-year-olds in public
schools around the world do in
applied reading, math and science skills — as saying:
Imagine in a few years that
you could sign on to a website
and see how your school compares with a similar school anywhere in the world.
And then you could take this
information to your superintendent and ask: “Why are we not
doing as well as schools in China
or Finland?”
Well, that day has come.
Thanks to a successful pilot
project involving 105 U.S. schools
recently completed by Schleicher’s team at the Organization for
Economic Cooperation and
Development, which coordinates
the Program for International
Student Assessment, or PISA
test, and Jon Schnur’s team at
America Achieves, which partnered with OECD.
Starting this fall, any high
school in America will be able to
benchmark itself against the
world’s best schools, using a new
tool that schools can register for
at www.americaachieves.org.
It is comparable to PISA and
measures how well students can
apply their mastery of reading,
math and science to real-world
problems.

T

HE PILOT STUDY WAS
described in an America
Achieves report entitled
“Middle Class or Middle of the
Pack?” that was released earlier
this month.
The report compares U.S. middle-class students with their
global peers of similar socioeconomic status on the 2009 PISA
exams.
The bad news is that U.S.
middle-class students are badly
lagging their peers globally.
“Many assume that poverty in
America is pulling down the
overall U.S. scores,” the report
said.
“But when you divide each
nation into socioeconomic quarters, you can see that even America’s middle-class students are
falling behind not only students
of comparable advantage, but
also more disadvantaged students in several other countries.”
American students in the second quarter of socioeconomic
advantage — mostly higher middle class — were significantly
outperformed by 24 countries in
math and by 15 countries in science, the study found.

schools, which is so valuable
because the PISA test exposes
whether your high school students can apply their math, science and reading skills to 21stcentury problems.
“One of my principals said to
me: ‘This is not your Virginia
Standards of Learning Test.’”

S

I

N THE THIRD QUARTER
of socioeconomic advantage
— mostly lower middle class
— U.S. students were significantly outperformed by peers in
31 countries or regions in math
and 25 in science.
The good news, though, said
Schnur, “is that, for the first time,
we have documented that there
are individual U.S. schools that
are literally outperforming every
country in the world.”
“BASIS Tucson North, a nonselective high school serving an
economically modest middle-class
student population in Arizona,
outperformed the average of
every country in the world in
reading, math, and science,” the
report said.
“Three nonselective high
schools in Fairfax, Va., outperformed the average of virtually
every country in the world.”

ARCADIO ESQUIVEL/CAGLE CARTOONS

One of them, Woodson, outperformed every region in the world
in reading, except Shanghai.
But the pilot also exposed
some self-deception.
“One school, serving students
similar to Woodson’s, lags behind
29 countries in math but received
an A on its state’s accountability
system based primarily on that
state’s own test,” Schnur said.

AUL BAMBRICKSantoyo is managing
director of North Star
Academies in Newark, N.J., an
Uncommon Schools network of
nine low-income charter schools
that took part and cracked the
world’s Top 10.

“We have always had state
tests and SATs,” he told me, “but
we never had an international
metric.
“This was a golden opportunity to see where we stand — if
we have to prepare our kids to
succeed not only in this country
but in a global marketplace.”
He said he was particularly
motivated by the fact that
Shanghai’s low-income kids
“could outperform” most U.S.
schools, because this gave his
school a real international peer
for a benchmark.
“We got 157 pages of feedback” from participating in the
pilot, added Jack Dale, the superintendent of Fairfax County’s

O WHAT’S THE SECRET
of the best-performing
schools?
It’s that there is no secret.
The best schools, the study
found, have strong fundamentals
and cultures that believe anything is possible with any student:
■ They “work hard to choose
strong teachers with good content knowledge and dedication to
continuous improvement.”
■ They are “data-driven and
transparent, not only around
learning outcomes, but also
around soft skills like completing
work on time, resilience, perseverance — and punctuality.”
■ And they promote “the
active engagement of our parents
and families.”
“If you look at all the data,”
concluded Schnur, it’s clear that
educational performance in the
U.S. has not gone down. We’ve
actually gotten a little better.
“The challenge is that changes
in the world economy keep raising the bar for what our kids
need to do to succeed. Our modest improvements are not keeping pace with this rising bar.
“Those who say we have failed
are wrong. Those who say we are
doing fine are wrong.”
The truth is, America has
world-beating K-12 schools.
We just don’t have nearly
enough.

That it is
bipartisan
would seem a
near miracle.
The “Group
of Eight”
reformers —
led by Republican Lindsey
Graham of
South Carolina and Democrat
Chuck Schumer of New York —
would demand concessions from
both open-border and closed-border hardliners.
Most important, they are the
right concessions.
Concession No. 1 is that most
of the estimated 11 million illegal
immigrants would be able to continue working in this country
without harassment by authorities.
For Republicans, Graham said
firmly on “Meet the Press,” “the
politics of self-deportation are
behind us.”
Concession No. 2 is that ethnic politics would not take the
driver’s seat in formulating the
rules.
The collapse of Latino support
for Republican candidates no
doubt unfroze the party’s wide-

spread opposition to dealing with
undocumented workers in a
humane way.
Gone, we
pray, is the
party’s tolerance for hostility toward
Latinos
tinged with
racism.
But identity politics
remain tiresome, whatever group is
playing them.
Former
New Mexico
Gov. Bill Richardson, a
Democrat, did not rise to the
occasion in this forum by saying,
“I’m a Hispanic-American,” to
preface his complaint that the
plan’s path to citizenship was
“too burdensome.”
“Make it achievable,” he said.
“I’ve seen reports of this 13 years
to get there.”
Graham properly responded
that “we’re going to control our
border, and there will be border
security tied to the pathway to
citizenship.”
And if security isn’t tied to the
pathway, “there will be no deal.”
He’s right.

One silly demand from some
senators is that employers and
immigrants pay higher fines and

beefed-up border security.
Arizona Republican John
McCain says he doesn’t want the
plan to impose “additional costs
to the taxpayers.”
Since when did national security have to pay for itself?
All in all, the Gang of Eight’s

President Barack Obama is on

done.

In his first
home start last
Tuesday against
Houston, Maurer recorded just two
outs and gave up six earned runs.
He was far better on Sunday,
allowing five hits and only two runs
before turning it over to the bullpen.
Tom Wilhelmsen pitched the
ninth for his fifth save.
Maurer made the jump from Double-A last season to the majors this
year and showed his youth and inexperience in his first two starts.
But Seattle continued to believe in
Maurer’s stuff to the point that newly
acquired starter Aaron Harang took
the rotation spot of Blake Beavan
and not Maurer.
Maurer backed up that belief with
the finest performance of his young
career. He struck out five and walked
only one.
And when Texas did get to him for
runs — in the second and fifth
innings — Maurer immediately
responded with 1-2-3 innings the
next time out.
Texas took the lead in the fifth,
scoring twice with two outs.
Leury Garcia hit a one-out triple
off the top of the wall in deep rightcenter but was cut down trying to
score on Elvis Andrus’ grounder to
second.
Craig Gentry was hit by a pitch,
and Lance Berkman ripped an RBI
single on a full-count pitch to score
Andrus.
Gentry advanced to third on Berkman’s hit and scored the go-ahead
run when Seattle catcher Jesus Montero couldn’t handle Maurer’s tailing
fastball and it went all the way to the
backstop for a passed ball.
Texas starter Nick Tepesch (1-1)
went 52⁄3 innings in his second career
start but could not get through the
sixth holding the lead.
After striking out Justin Smoak to
open the sixth, Kyle Seager hit his
second double of the game — he
lined an RBI double in the second.
Montero followed with a brokenbat single that dropped softly into
shallow right field and allowed Seager to score the tying run.
The throw home was wide, and
Montero was able to advance to second.
Seattle is off today, the last team
in baseball to get a day off. The Mariners’ reward is 16 straight games
after the day off.

Playoff after
tie goes to
two holes
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

AUGUSTA, Ga. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Adam
Scott became the first Australian to win the Masters,
beating Angel Cabrera on
the second hole of a playoff
on a soggy Sunday at
Augusta National.
The Masters went to a
sudden-death playoff for
the second year in a row
when Scott and Cabrera
made matching birdies on
the 72nd hole.
They both made par on
the first extra hole, returning to No. 18, before Scott
rolled in a 12-footer for
birdie to win it.
Scott pumped his fists in
the air, screaming toward
the gray, darkening sky, and
embraced caddie Steve Williams, who was on the bag
for 13 of Tiger Woodsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 14
major titles.
For Scott, this is the
first, making up for his
major meltdown at last
yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s British Open, where
he bogeyed the last four
holes to lose by a stroke to
Ernie Els.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;I found my way today,â&#x20AC;?
Scott said.
Scott, playing in the
next-to-last group, made a
20-foot putt at 18 and celebrated with Williams as if it
were over. Cabrera, in the
final group, watched from
the fairway knowing he had
to hit a brilliant shot.
He did.
Cabreraâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ball pulled up
3 feet from the cup for an
easy birdie that sent the
two players to the playoff
tied at 9-under 279.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how golf is,â&#x20AC;? said
Cabrera, who was denied
his third major title. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had

Woods, the overwhelming favorite, came up short
again. He hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t won the
Masters since 2005, or any
major championship since
the 2008 U.S. Open.
Woods struggled with
the putter on the front side,
then missed a birdie try at
No. 16 that could have put
some pressure on the leaders.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had a hard time getting accustomed to the

Woods was tied for the

His first attempt hit the
stick and caromed about 45

DEAR ABBY: My daughter died
in a car accident two years ago. She
and her boyfriend, “Reed,” had a
4-month-old daughter, “Angela.” Since
then, Reed has been very understanding and liberal with visitations.
However, it didn’t take him long to
find another girlfriend, who has a
4-year-old daughter I’ll call Madison.
The first time I went to pick up
Angela, the new girlfriend hinted
strongly that I also should take
Madison. I didn’t like it, but I took
her.
Abby, Madison is the meanest,
rudest child I have ever met. She
called my dad ugly, my daughter
ugly and my house “stinky.” I saw
her push Angela down and laugh.
Then she tried to smother my granddaughter by sitting on her head on
the couch.
The last time I brought Angela
home, Madison told me that everything I bought for Angela I had to
buy for her, too.
I don’t want to take Madison anymore. It has been difficult losing my
daughter, seeing her replaced with a
new girlfriend and now being
expected to include an unpleasant
“step-granddaughter” in everything.
But if I don’t take her, I’m afraid
they won’t let me visit Angela. Do
you have any advice?

DEAR ABBY
at 24. “Josh” is
charming, intelliVan Buren gent, a hard
worker and a wonderful partner. I
know we can
achieve all the
things we hope for.
We have discussed where we
stand on issues
such as children,
family, finances,
living arrangements, etc. We are mostly compatible, and where there is tension, we
work it through and compromise.
We clearly are headed toward
engagement. He has picked out a
ring, and I want it badly, but I am
hesitant. I am afraid I won’t give
him what he deserves.
I dated a man in college for three
years. We talked about our future,
made plans, and then I changed my
mind. The pain I caused was terrible.
I still regret hurting him, although I
don’t regret leaving. I’m afraid I will
do it again. I’m so anxious I sometimes think I should bail now and cut
his losses just in case. I don’t think I
will, but who can see the future?
My mother says I have always
been obsessed with making the right
choice. Am I being foolish and letting
my anxieties run away with me?

Abigail

Dear Gram: If you haven’t
already spoken to Reed and the girl’s
mother about her behavior, you
should. Madison may act out because
she’s jealous of Angela and, among
other things, she needs to learn better manners before she’s included in
any more visits.
If she had pulled the shenanigans
with me that she has with you, I
would have taken her home immediately.
This is not to say that Madison
should be permanently excluded, but
you should have time with your
granddaughter one-on-one. The same
is true for Madison and her grandparents.
You are not a built-in baby sitter,
which appears to be how you have
been made to feel, but nothing will
change until you broach the subject.

Dear Susan: There are better
ways to cope with your anxiety than
“throwing the baby out with the
bathwater.” You are not the same
person you were in college. You have
grown and are obviously more aware
of the consequences of your actions.
Because you are anxious about
making a commitment to “the love or
your life” — someone with whom you
have many things in common — it’s
time to schedule an appointment
with a licensed counselor to discuss
it. It will be time and money well
spent.
